Fig. 5From: Lactobacillus frumenti mediates energy production via fatty acid β-oxidation in the liver of early-weaned pigletsRegulation of nucleotide metabolism by L. frumenti in early-weaned piglets. a Purine nucleotide abundances in serum (LF, L. frumenti). b, c Uracil-related metabolite abundances in serum. d, e Cytosine and thymine-related metabolite abundances in serum. f Scheme showing how the metabolites of purine are interrelated and affected by L. frumenti administration. Metabolites significantly increased by L. frumenti are indicated by red text, while significantly reduced metabolites are green. Black metabolites were not measured. GMP, guanosine monophosphate; IMP, inosine monophosphate; UMP, uridine monophosphate. All values are shown as mean ± standard deviation (SD), and statistical significance was calculated using two-tailed Student’s t-tests. Differences were considered statistically significant at P < 0.05 (*), P < 0.01 (**). n = 5 pigletsBack to article page
